PREFACE. 

As  the  title  indicates,  the  plan  of  this  speller  is  cumulative.  Each 
lesson  consists  of  sixteen  words,  the  first  twelve  of  which  are 
respellod  phonetically  and  defined.  The  syllabication, pronunciation, 
and  definition  of  the  remaining  four  words  should  be  assigned  to 
the  student,  either  as  homework  or  seat-work.  A  homework 
dictionary,  containing  all  of  these  special  words,  is  included  in  the 
speller  at  the  end  of  the  first  hundred  regular  lessons.  This  feature 
of  the  work  is  intended  to  afford  the  student  a  ready  means  of 
acquiring  the  dictionary  habit — a  habit  so  essential  to  all  phono- 
graphers  who  take  pride  in  turning  out  accurate  work.  Nearly  all 
of  the  words  assigned  for  homework  are  later  on  repeated  in  the 
regular  lessons,  so  that  the  lessons  review  themselves  and  reduce  to 
a  minimum  the  necessity  of  having  special  review  lessons- 

This  book  can,  of  course,  be  used  in  the  ordinarv  way  by  those  who 
do  not  know  shorthand,  and  also  by  those  students  who  have  not 
yet  finished  the  study  of  the  theory.  The  importance  of  using 
shorthand  and  typewriting  in  conjunction  with  the  study  of  spelling 
can  hardly  be  over-estimated.  For  those  who  have  completed  the 
study  of  the  theory,  the  following  plan  is  recommended  :  Allow  the 
students  to  take  their  spelling  lesson  in  the  typewriting  department. 
At  least  two  lessons  should  be  assigned,  and  the  students  should 
prepare  the  shorthand  outlines  so  that  they  can  take  the  words  in 
shorthand  from  the  teacher's  dictation.  This  dictation  should  not 
occupy  more  than  half  a  minute.  The  students  should  then  be 
required  to  write  the  words  on  the  typewriter  from  the  shorthand 
outlines,  and,afterwards  exchange  papers  and  con'ect  with  pencils. 
Two  of  the  regular  lessons  when  taken  up  in  this  way  should  not 
occupy  more  than  ten  minutes  of  the  teacher's  time  and  the  results 
will  be  found  most  gratifying. 

The  Standard  Dictionary  has  been  the  chief  authority  consulted 
in  the  preparation  of  this  work.  It  should  be  noted  in  such  words 
as  occurrence,  commission,  etc,  that  when  the  accent  is  on  the 
second  syllable,  the  last  letter  of  the  first  syllable  is  regularly 
repeated  in  the  second.  In  forming  shorthand  outlinos  this  repeated 
letter  may  generally  be  omitted  except  in  a  few  negative  words.

The  systematic  application  of  the  following  rules  will  assure 
correct  capitalization: 

1.  Capitalize  the  initial  letter  (1)  of  the  first  word  of  eveiy 
complete  sentence ;  (2)  of  the  first  word  of  every  distinct  clause 
separately  paragraphed  or  numbered  ;  (3'  of  every  proper  name; 
(+)  of  evei'y  word  derived  ti-om  a  proper  name;  (5)  of  the  first  noi'd 
and  of  the  chief  other  words  in  the  titles  of  books,  pictures,  plays,  or 
publications;  (O)  of  the  firot  word  and  other  chief  words  in  subtitles 
or  subdivisions  of  books  written  in  two  or  more  parts. 

2.  Capitalize  all  the  names  of  the  Deity^e.^.,  the  Almighti/ 
Creator,  Father,  God,  Jahveh,  Jehovah. 

3.  Write  the  personal  pronoun  in  the  first  person  singular  a 
capital — as  "  Vengeance  is  mine,  saith  the  Lord ;  /will  repay." 

4.  Capitalize  the  initial  letter  of  words  of  special  importance  or 
others  specifically  applied,  as  the  family  names  or  type  genuses  of 
animal  or  of  plant  life- 

5.  "Write  the  initial  letter  of  the  first  word  of  every  Kne  of  verse  a 
capital — e.g. : 

"  My  love  to  those  that  I  love ; 
My  love  to  those  that  love  me. 
My  love  to  those  that  love  those  that  I  love, 
And  to  those  that  love  those  that  love  me."

sequence  of  thought  is  intemipted  by  repetition  or  by  the  addition, 
as  of  verbs,  nouns,  or  other  pai-ts  of  speech — the  comma  is  used  to 
.sepai-ate  the  simple  members. 

Examples : 

Charity,  like  the  sun,  brightens  every  object  it  shines  upon 

Men  of  age  object  too  much,  consult  too  long,  adventure  too

success. 

3.  It  is  used  in  separating  several  (more  than  two)  words  which 
are  conni^cted  by  conjunctions  expressed  or  implifd.

clause. 

Example : 

Man,  living,  feeling  man,  is  the  easy  prey  of  the  powei"ful 
present. 

8.  It  is  used  to  introduce  a  single  short  quotation.  If,  however 
more  than  one  quotation  is  cited,  a  colon  should  be  used  instead. 

9.  It  is  used  in  the  place  of  a  verb  omitted  or  of  a  word  understood. 

10.  It  is  used  before  and  after  the  infinitive  mood  when  the 
infinitive  follows  a  verb  from  which  it  should  be  set  off,  or  when  it 
is  de]>endent  on  a  thing  understood  or  remote. 

Examples : 

His  aim  was,  to  foster  the  interests  of  the  natives. 

To    continue,    I    will    now    show  the  consequence  of  my

words  on  which  they  are  dependent. 


AND  SHORTHAND  VOCABULARY  131 

Examples : 

American  aristocracy  is,  to  some  extent,  a  matter  of  wealth. 

By  study,  we   may  add   to  oxar  store  of  knowledge   that 
acquired  by  our  ancestors.

Lord  God  Almighty ! 


2.  The  Semicolon  (;) 

The  semicolon  is  used  to  indicate  a  separation  in  the  relations  of 
the  thought  in  a  compound  sentence — a  degree  greater  than  that 
expressed  by  the  comma. 

1.  It  is  used  to  separate  different  statements ;  that  is,  the  different 
clauses  of  a  compound  sentence  wliich  are  already  separated  by 
commas. 

Example : 

We  may  live  without  poetry,  music,  and  art ; 
We  may  live  without  conscience,  and  live  without  heart: 
We  may  live  without  friends  ;  we  may  live  without  books; 
But  civilized  man  can  not  live  without  cooks. 

2.  It  is  used  to  separate  two  or  move  simple  menibers  of  a  sentence 
when  these  require  a  pause  greater  than  that  which  a  comma  would 
mark. 

Example : 

Who  lives  to  nature  rarely  can  be  poor ;  who  lives  to  fancy 
never  can  be  rich. 

3.  It  is  used  before  "  as  "  when  employed  as  an  introductory  to  an 
example.

132  cumulative  spellek 

3.  The  Colon  (:) 
The  colon  is  used  as  a  sign  of  apposition  or  equality  to  connect  one 
clause  with  another  that  explains  it,  as  in  introducing  a  list,  a 
quotation,  an  enumei-ation,  or  a  catalog ;  or  to  join  clauses  that  are 
grammatically  complete  yet  closely  connected  in  sense;  or  to  mark 
any  discontinuity  in  sense  or  gi-ammatical  construction  greater  than 
that  which  is  indicated  by  a  semicolon,  but  not  sufficient  to  require 
a  period  or  a  dash. 

1.  It  is  used  to  separate  one  complete  clause  from  another. 
Examples  : 

The  power  to  bind  and  loose  to  Truth  is  given  : 
The  mouth  that  speaks  it  is  the  mouth  of  Heaven. 
Love  is  the  emblem  of  eternity  :  it  confounds  ?11  notions  of 
time  :  effaces  all  memory  of  a  beginning,  all  fear  of  an  end. 

2.  It  is  used  in  sentences  in  which  the  semicolon  has  been  intro- 
duced when  a  gi-eater  pause  is  required  than  can  be  indicated  by  a 
semicolon. 

Example : 

It  surely  was  not  obscurity  ;  it  was  not  weakness :  it  was  a 
want  of  that  sen?itive  taste  which  ought  to  breathe  its  delicate 
sense  of  fitness  into  the  plainest  phraseology. 

3.  It  is  used  to  introduce  a  formal  quotation. 
Example : 

A  writer  in  the  Wextminster  Review  discourses  in  this 
fashion :  "  Another  curious  observation  upon  philosophic 
activity  is  that  the  coordination  of  all  functions  which 
constitute  the  whole  intellectual  energy  of  philosophic  minds 
is  preserved  in  its  plenitude  for  only  a  short  period  of  their 
whole  duration  of  life."* 

4.  The  Period  (.) 

1.  The  period  or  full  stop  is  used  after  every  complete  declarative 
statement. 

Example : 

Consider  the  end. 

2.  After  title-headings  and  side-heads. 

3.  After  most  abbreviations. 
Examples : 

A.M.  for  ante  meridian  ;  LL.D.  for  Doctor  of  Laws ;  e.g.  for 
ejempli  gratia  (for  the  sake  of  example  . 

4.  After  Roman  numerals,  except  when  they  are  used  to  number 
pages. 

5.  The    Dash    (— ) 

The  dash  is  used  to  mark  (1)  a  change  of  thought  or  construction 
or  (2)  an  emphatic  or  unexpected  pause. 

*  Phelps,  English  Style  in  Public  Discourse,  p.  133. 


AND  SHORTHAND  VOCABULARY  i  33

2.  What  say  ye  ?     Speak  now — now  or  never. 

6.  The  Interrogation  Point  (?) 

The  note  of  interrogation  or  eroteme  is  used  at  the  end  of  a 
sentence  to  designate  (1)  a  single  question  or  (2)  more,  and  (3)  is 
sometimes  written  in  parentheses  to  express  a  doubt  or  challenge 
the  accuracy  of  a  statement. 

Examples : 

1.  Truths  would  you  teach,  or  save  a  sinking  land  ? 

2.  Father  of  Light !     Great  God  of  Heaven  ! 

Hear'st  Thou  the  accents  of  despair  ?

by  the  Deity  to  reclaim  the  tribes  from  savage  life. 

7.  The    Exclamation    Mark   (!) 

The  note  of  exclamation  or  ecphoneme  is  used  after  a  word  or 
phrase  to  express  sudden  emotion,  and  is  sometimes  repeated  for 
emphasis. 
Examples : 

Ah  !     What  were  man  should  Heaven  refuse  to  hear  I 
Never !   Never  ! !   Never  ! !  I 

8.    Quotation    Marks   ("...";   '...') 

1.  Double  quotation  marks  or  guillemets  are  used  to  designate 
that  the  matter  within  them  is  a  direct  quotation  from  another 
author  or  is  dialogue. 

2.  Single  quotation  marks  are  used  within  double  quotation  marks 
to  designate  that  the  matter  within  them  is  a  quotation  from  another 
author  or  speaker  cited  by  the  first  author  whose  matter  is  printed 
within  the  double  mark?. 

Examples : 

"  Gi'ant  White,    referring    to    Milton,   says    '  Milton  calls 
Raphael  "  the  affable   archangel,"  and  makes  Adam  say  to 
him,  as  he  is  about  departing  heavenward  : 
'  Gentle  to  me  and  affable  hath  been 
Thy  condescension,  and  shall  be  honored  ever 
With  grateful  memoiy.' " 

3.  Double  quotation  mai'ks  are  sometimes  used  in  citing  titles,  a 
of  books,  but  titles  are  often  printed  in  italic  type,  and  when  this  is 
done  quotation  marks  are  not  used. 


134      cumulative  speller  and  shorthand  vocabulary 

9.   Parentheses    ( ) 

1.  The  parentheses  are  used  to  separate  an  explanatory  or 
qualifying  clause,  or  a  sentence  inserted  in  another  sentence  which 
is  grammatically  complete  without  it. 

Examples : 

The  wallflower,  on  each  rifted  rock, 
From  liberal  blossoms  shall  breathe  down 
(Gold  blossoms  frecked  with  iron-brown) 
Its  fragrance. 

The  columbine  is  a  herbaceous  plant  of  the  crowfoot  family 
(Ranunculaceae),  vfith  the  leaflets  shaped  like  those  of  the 
meadow-rue 

2.  They  are  used  also  in  connection  with  the  titles  of  books  (a)  to 
separate  the  place  and  date  of  publication  from  the  text,  thus 
presei"ving  the  continuity  of  same ;  ( i)  to  enclose  references  or  figures 
denoting  numerical  sections  or  other  divisions;  (c)  to  enclose  notes 
of  interrogation  inserted  to  express  doubt  of  the  correctness  of  the 
statement  made- 

Example  : 

(a)  Mrs.  Massingbird  published  "Sickness,  Its  Trials  and 
Blessings"  (London,  1868). 

The  uses  referred  to  under  (h  and  (c)  above  are  so  frequent  as  not 
to  require  illustration. 

10.   The   Apostrophe    (') 

The  apostrophe  is  used  to  denote  the  possessive  case,  which  is 
made  in  the  singular  by  adding  s  with  an  apostrophe,  as  also  in  the 
plural  of  Bouns  that  do  not  end  in  * — as,  man's,  men's.  The  plural 
possessive,  when  the  plural  already  ends  with  an  s,  is  foniied  by 
adding  an  apostrophe  after  the  word — as,  horses'  teelh;  that  is 
"  the  teeth  of  horses." 

11.  The    Caret   (a) 

The  caret  is  used  only  in  writing,  to  denote  where  omitted  words 
or  letters  are  to  be  inserted. 

12.  The   Dierbsis  {  " ) 

The  dieresis  or  dialysis  consists  of  two  dots  placed  over  a  vowel. 

1.  It  is  placed  above  one  of  two  vowels  when  these  follow  one 
another,  to  show  that  they  do  not  form  a  diphthong — as  Danae. 

2.  It  is  used  sometimes  (but,  in  general,  modem  practice  discards 
it)  over  the  second  vowel  in  words  where  the  vowel  is  doubled — as, 
zoophyte.  The  "  Standard  Dictionary "  discards  the  dieresis 
altogether.

SHORTHAND   READING  BOOKS. 

The  student,  to  increase  his  speed,  and  to  improve  his  knowledge 
of  Phonography,  cannot  read  too  much  well-engraved  shorthand. 
One  advantage  of.  studying  the  Isaac  Pitman  system — and  one 
which  cannot  well  be  over-estimated — is,  that  the  shorthand 
literature  in  that  system  is  far  in  excess  of  all  other  systems 
combined. 

"  We  would  emphasise  still  further  the  wealth  a/  literature 
the  Isaac  Pitman  system  has.  .  .  .  These  publishers  are 
continually  issuing  new  works  in  shorthand,  and  this  in  itself 
should  make  their  system  a  great  force  in  the  shorthand  world." —

Pitman's  Cumulative  Speller.  112  pp.,  cloth,  40c.  By  Charles 
E.  Smith,  author  of  "  A  Practical  Course  in  Touch  Typewriting." 
A  modern  and  practical  speller  for  Commercial  Education.  As 
the  title  indicates,  the  plan  is  cumulative.  Each  lesson  consists 
of  sixteen  words,  the  first  twelve  of  which  are  respelled  phonetic- 
ally and  defined.  The  syllabication,  pronunciation,  and  definition 
of  the  remaining  four  words  should  be  assigned  to  the  student, 
either  as  homework  or  seat-work.  A  homework  d'ctionary, 
containing  all  of  these  special  words,  is  included  in  the  speller 
at  the  end  of  the  first  hundred  regular  lessons.  This  feature  of 
the  work  is  intended  to  afford  the  student  a  ready  means  of 
acquiring  the  dictionary  habit — a  habit  so  essential  to  all  who 
take  pride  in  turning  out  accurate  work.
